DESCRIPTION
pcre-config returns the configuration of the installed PCRE
libraries: the options required to compile a program to use them.
OPTIONS
- --prefix
-
Writes the directory prefix used in the PCRE installation for
architecture independent files (e.g. /usr) to standard output.
- --exec-prefix
-
Writes the directory prefix used in the PCRE installation for
architecture dependent files (normally the same as --prefix)
to standard output.
- --version
-
Writes the version of PCRE installed to standard output.
- --libs
-
Writes to standard output the command line options required to link
with PCRE (e.g. -lpcre).
- --libs-posix
-
Writes to standard output the command line options required to link
with the PCRE POSIX emulation library (e.g. -lpcreposix -lpcre).
- --cflags
-
Writes to standard output the command line options required to compile
files that use PCRE (this often includes some -I options, but is blank
on debian systems).
- --cflags-posix
-
Writes to standard output the command line options required to compile
files that use the PCRE POSIX emulation library (this often includes
some -I options, but is blank on debian systems). Suppress printing of
filenames when searching multiple files.
